    Not super late at all. While it's true that astronomers have been watching this develop, there is no science to predict the exact nature of CME's or when they will occur. Even now, knowing discharges have happened, the scientific community is not able to predict how strongly we will be affected, beyond warning us to expect increased auroras. It is possible this will be the end of civilization, but not very likely. The reason the telegraphs blew out in the 1800's, is because they have extremely long but fairly thin wires that soak up all that radiation from the Sun and deliver it to the communication stations where it burns out all the sensitive equipment. On this occasion it will be the power grid that soaks up that radiation along with any other long lines like telephone. The power grid is far more robust than ancient telegraph lines and designed to anticipate CME's. Anything can be overwhelmed so in the end, we'll just have to wait and see. I doubt we'll even notice.

    No mention of how having solar & battery storage can allow you to still create power, especially if it’s portable. Every one should have a portable power station of atleast 250wh and atleast a 100 watt solar panel for emergencies, stored in your garage- much less likely to be damaged by a solar storm which would predominately affect transformers. If you get a 1kWh battery/inverter portable station, you can make a few miles a day for your EV or run your house basic needs. Also keep in mind many EV charging stations have their own independent battery storage for power in case of emergencies. The main incentive being to buy and store excess solar energy in the afternoon and sell it to customers at peak demand in the evening.

    More specifically, these solar storms eject charged particles in large amounts in coronal mass ejections (CMEs). If they hit the Earth's magnetic field, electromagnetic pulses are generated (EMPs). EMPs can be devastating because they will induce an electric current in anything that can conduct electricity. If you have a large enough CME, you could see large scale EMP's occur which would knock out power generation and transmission equipment.

    Thank you for the explanation. It got me thinking. In really large wind turbines, big substations, with tons of copper wire coils, if voltages are high enough to ionize the air and short out transformer windings, they might all melt. Start other stuff on fire. Leave a lot of people stuck in the dark.

    HAARP have been studying the magnetosphere for decades. There was a research post near my house in Alaska. They would send intense radio broadcasts upwards trying to effect the feild. It actually worked and they discovered repelling the ionosphere was easy to do as well. It would slightly effect the stratosphere and troposphere. In 1997 a person I know who worked there said it was just a mater of time we could mess with the vapor column like the sport of curling, guiding a stone by sweeping the ice with brooms.

    3:07 No we don't have systems in place. Electric companies prioritize profit before everything else. Even fire hazard is to expensive. Just look at Hawaii. Whole town burned down for lack of investment. Texas was totally unprepared for winter. Wind turbines work in arctic winter, but they chose cheaper option that works in room temperatures only.... etc.. To protect network from droping out every 20 years due to sun activity makes no economic sense over safety and security. A big change in thinking would be required before anything is done.

    It's wise not to do anything critical on your computer during an ice or wind storm unless you have an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Judging by what happened during the 1859 Carrington Event, that probably holds for a severe solar flare event also.

    Bill is not explaining this well right now. 1) The sun is PLASMA not gas. Extremely dense plasma that swirls and sloshes like liquid. 2) These swirling pools and currents of highly charged and magnetic plasma have an enormously powerful magnetic field ( 0.4 Tesla, refrigerator magnets 0.0001 Tesla) that sloshes with the plasma. The fields wind up like a spring and SNAP with the power of hundreds of H-bxxbs, hurling the super-heated particles closest to the surface out at a fraction of light speed. If the timing is right the Earth passes through these clouds and it's magnetosphere smashes into the particles slowing them down and radiating the energy they lose as visible light. edit: This is electomagnetic induction at work, the same thing that lets your phones charge from a coil wirelessly, and is used as brakes for rollercoasters, and mag-lev trains as well as military rail-gxns. Lucky for us we have the O² layer and magnetosphere to stop these or all our electronics would be fried to hell, and cancer would be much more common.

    Hey Bill I wanted to let you know was a little off on your UHF interference? As a shortwave radio user? I wanted to share if you have anything that resembles and or is similar to the Midland 76 - 263 and 1 SSB transceiver your am .might shut off I was still receiving Morse code as well as other LSB capable messaging, but the a.m. it was drawing a lot of power, standard 40 channel civilian radios is still working pretty well least in Massachusetts? He's right on everything else but I don't think it will really interfere with shortwave radio until it really gets up there, it did knockout channel 12 through 15, your mid high frequency, lower end and higher end is still working pretty well? Anyone else having issues I would like to hear it in the reply section so I can plan ahead of time it is a pretty interestin, also the reason why those telegraphs went up in 1800 was because they did not realize power supplies without that converter box, today you will need a converter box to run those, which would convert the capability for the telegraph to work properly in these situations, it'll blow my house up, if I was to plug the CB into the outlet they didn't have converter boxes.

    Actual scientists are busy working. Scientists who *also* do communication are extremely rare - specially because not all scientists are good at communicating. Therefore, the job of scientific communication is given to science communicators, like Mr. Nye. Most people recognize him and wouldn't get much more from an actual scientist they don't know and who happens to talk like an academic paper. Also, did Mr. Nye say anything wrong? If he didn't, and people learned something, mission accomplished.

    A solar flare powerful enough to knock out power would be surreal.. Imagine that you're in bed just scrolling on your phone and all the power goes out. It seems that your phone suddenly died and you have to fumble to find the flashlight that also doesn't seem to be working. The streetlights are out, and the only thing illuminating the city scape is a brilliant red display in the sky. From what you know of solar flares and the potential existential threat it is to our digital age, it slowly dawns on you that the world will never be the same. In an instant, we've been thrown back an age without any warning. I hope I never see the day we get a Carrington event level CME. There's nothing we can do but small attempts of preparation for the worst

    It's all fun till s#it goes strange........ I have 2 of those "touch lights" you know the type that don't have a mechanical switch on them you just lightly touch the metal base to turn them on. Suddenly switch on at my place at 2-50am in the morning! a few nights ago actually on Mothers day here in Australia. The odd thing is both lights are on different power circuits! One is in my lounge room the other is about 30ft away in a bedroom, that has been used as a storage room for the last 2-3 years (my mother passed away about a year and a half ago). In order to turn off the one in the bedroom beside the bed i would have had to move lots of boxes and stuff to get to it. So i went outside to the fuse box and turn off 1 of the 2 power circuits not sure which one to switch first but i got lucky and picked the right one, I went back inside to see which one was off and it was the one in the bedroom. I have no idea what made them turn on? was it the solar flares? who knows? These lights NEVER EVER turn on even in a electrical storm or even during slight brown outs that have happened so not sure why they turned on the other night? Now here's where it gets real interesting! I was here alone watching and documentary on you tube at the time on UFO's and paranormal activity when this happened! spooky or what? And to further make it interesting this same thing did happen once before in the middle of the night quite a few years ago! Back then we had 3 of these lamps plugged in, 2 in the same bedroom and the one in the lounge room in the same places and they all came on for no reason! My mother was asleep in another room she was nearly 90 and could not move around without help and a wheeler, So i got up and turned them all off! she had no idea how they came on either. Never understood how that happened either? I can't remember any solar flare activity back then so who knows? 👽

    The Carrington event caused fires in electrical (telegraph) systems. An event like that today could cause major disruptions all over the world.

    i find it strange how the solar eclipse + lunar eclipse made an x between the eastern us to part of south america now this solar flare is apparently marking an x too and literally everything that's happened in 2024 has happened in 1813. chronologically i'm not a conspiracy theorist and i'm not superstitious but in all genuineness this makes me feel incredibly uneasy
